Part of Google's blitz of announcements yesterday were several mobile announcements including a really neat feature named Google Goggles.

Other announcements include Search by Voice in other languages, such as Japanese, English and Mandarin. Search by Location on Android, and Search by Sight which is Google Goggles.
